Possible Causes

Stuck or worn solenoid valve, Debris in valve seat, Damaged trigger valve in hand tool, Excessive pump pressure

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power and relieve pressure by triggering the wand with the machine off.

  • Clean jets and valve: Remove spray jets and clean them. If dripping persists, inspect the solenoid valve or mechanical valve for debris and clean the seat.
  • Inspect hand tool trigger: If the issue is only with the hand tool, replace the trigger valve assembly.
  • Replace solenoid valve: If the valve coil energizes and de‑energizes correctly but water still passes, replace the Nilfisk solution solenoid valve.
